Long time no chit-chat

You guys probably thought I had left the Country or fell off the wagon big time, or ran off and joined a circus! Wrong on all counts I have actually been getting my poor sick computer better and still doing the same old same old! I wont be blogging about my food plan anymore I'm pretty sure you guys have the whole eat clean thing down pat. But, I will still be writing down my thoughts, whats going on in my little world and so and so on.

I have finally made the decision to seek out counseling for my food addiction, I am guilty of not seeking professional help for my food problem and I think it can only help. Because recovery is a nice balance of mental, physical and spiritual recovery, I'm pretty good with the last two, but because my problem with food is all in my head, which eventually finds it way to my thighs! I don't think I'm doing all I can to keep my recovery on a nice even keel, which would be really nice, rather than the emotional roller coaster that can sometimes be my life.

So, I will be very happy to share with you guys whatever enlightenment is thrown my way as means to a happier, healthier, saner life. I wish you all the best and hope all is good in your world.

Cougars in Canmore!


Yes you guessed it! A good friend of mine and I went to Canmore the other day and had a great time, I love that little town, sometimes more so than Banff because it's not as touristy. I had to really curb my spending as I'm not independently wealthy yet, but I'm working on it! I'm just staying in town this Easter long weekend, even when I was working I didn't like to go out of town because there is an influx of even more crazy people on the road than normal and that's bloody scary!

It's been a couple of days since my last blog which was a bit of a downer, but I have been good since, I've had a few shaky days, but more mental than anything else. I am feeling much more positive about my abstinence and am happy to be back on track. I hope you all have a great Easter weekend what ever you're doing and try not to eat too many of those yummy chocolaty things, or if you do, just work them off later somehow!
